Podcast appearances and mentions of Neil Armstrong

Ally had a 'hot girl' weekend in Vegas, complete with outfit changes, plunging necklines, bottle service, and an 'ass-only' swimsuit photoshoot. She learned a lot about what it takes to be a 'real' woman while experiencing John Summit at LIV + No Doubt at the Sphere. If you wanna see her She's All That transformation, go to our IG @kleinallyshow. Meanwhile, Klein was on a soccer field rooting against his own kid after her team got into a post-season tournament. Is he a bad parent for rooting against his daughter's ambitions? Graduation speeches are being shared all over social media right now, but could robots do it better? We find out with a round of Man Vs Machine: Graduation. Note: Quoting Gandolf in your speech does not qualify as inspirational. We also learned Jake has never purchased an avocado, everyone's mom wants to f*ck Tom Selleck, and Johnny thinks Neil Armstrong rode Sputnik to get to the moon. In the words of Postmaster Johnny: Take that, Russians!

Our guest today is Doug Cooke, an aerospace consultant who spent 38 years at NASA's Johnson Space Center in Houston and NASA Headquarters in Washington, D.C.  STEM-Talk host and IHMC founder Dr. Ken Ford, a former Associate Director of NASA's Ames Research Center and Director of NASA's Center of Excellence in Information Technology, interviewed Doug just four days after the astronauts of NASA's Artemis II mission splashed down in the Pacific Ocean following a historic 10-day roundtrip from the Earth to the Moon. In today's episode, Ken and Doug discuss the Artemis mission as well as NASA's plans to return humans to the lunar surface by 2028. Doug also shares his concern that China could one day surpass America's leadership role in human spaceflight. During his 38 years at NASA, Doug played critical roles in the Space Shuttle, International Space Station and Human Exploration spaceflight programs. During the last three years of his NASA career, he served as Associate Administrator of the Exploration Systems Mission Directorate, which oversees the development of systems critical to NASA’s plans for human exploration of the Moon and Mars, including the Artemis program. Show notes: [00:04:05] Ken opens our interview with Doug by talking about the Artemis II mission, which is the first crewed mission beyond low earth orbit since Apollo 17 in 1972. Harrison Schmidtt, who was on Apollo 17, was our guest on episode 4. Ken asks Doug for his key takeaways of the Artemis II mission, which set the record for a manned mission from Earth, traveling 252,756 miles into space and breaking Apollo 13's record. [00:06:18] Ken explains that the Artemis missions signal a new age of space exploration as well as the beginning of a new space race between the U.S. and China. NASA aims to land humans on the Moon by 2028 while China expects to land humans on the moon in 2030. Ken has previously stated that he does not have confidence in NASA's current mission architecture to achieve NASA's stated goal of 2028, and asks Doug for his thoughts on the matter. [00:07:28] Ken asks if it is true that Yuri Gagarin, who become the first human to fly into space, is what initially sparked Doug's interest in science and space. [00:08:54] Ken notes that Gagarin's orbit around the earth inspired President Kennedy to vow that the United States would ramp up its space program and become the first nation to land a man on the moon. Ken mentions that he believes the Apollo 11 mission, which landed astronauts Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin on the lunar surface, was one the greatest technological advances in world history. Ken asks Doug for his thoughts on the success of the Apollo program. [00:10:28] Ken mentions that Doug went to college at Texas A&M and majored in aerospace engineering. Kens asks Doug how he got a job at NASA after graduating. [00:12:21] Ken explains that Doug was instrumental in the development of the space shuttle and the International Space Station during his time at NASA. Doug talks about what it was like working on those projects at NASA. [00:15:16] Ken mentions that Doug also had an instrumental role in the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO), Lunar Crater Observation and Sensing Satellite (LCROSS), and the broader Exploration Technology Program. Ken points out that Doug became head of the exploration technology program in 1990 under then NASA Associate Administrator Mike Griffin, who was our guest on episodes 134 and 189. Ken asks Doug about meeting Mike. [00:16:17] Ken mentions that Mike Griffin and Lisa Porter were our guests on episode 189, where they voiced concerns about NASA's current plans for a return to the moon. Ken goes on to mention that near the end of Doug's career at NASA, he was the head of Exploration Systems Mission Directorate (ESMD), which is responsible for the development of systems critical to NASA's plans for future exploration of the Moon and Mars. Ken asks Doug to talk about his role as head of the directorate and the work he did there. [00:18:55] Ken explains that Doug has written extensively on the issues with the Artemis mission architecture, most notably in a recent article for space news. Before jumping into the article, Ken asks Doug to talk about why it is important and also a national-security concern that we return to the moon before China. [00:21:12] Looping back to Doug's op-ed in Space News, Ken notes that Doug stressed the need for NASA to develop a plan-B for the Artemis mission, with Doug and others noting that without a plan-B, the U.S. risks of losing the space race to the Moon. Doug has also gone on record to say that China has a far simpler, more direct, and more technically conservative plan than NASA. Ken asks Doug to elaborate on this. [00:22:37] Ken asks Doug to talk about the issues he and others have identified with NASA's current proposed landing system. [00:26:14] Ken asks Doug to give a better understanding for the listeners of just how tall the proposed SpaceX lander is, and why that is a potential problem for not only landing on the moon in the proposed locations, but also for the astronauts exiting and entering. [00:28:51] Ken asks Doug to talk about what plan-B for Artemis looks like. [00:30:12] Ken asks Doug about the powerful thrust generation of the SpaceX lander. This raises the concern of regolith blast and generating significant debris fields while landing and thus reducing the scientific value of the region immediately surrounding the landing site. [00:30:59] Ken asks if Doug has any other thoughts on a potential plan-B. [00:33:02] Ken notes that the success of the mission hinges on the least proven element, namely the lander. While other elements of the mission architecture are well established, the hardest and least tested elements are normally the weakest links. Ken asks Doug's thoughts on this position. [00:34:31] Ken asks Doug to talk about the complexity of the Artemis mission architecture and that it is largely driven by the Lander and NASA's requirements.  There was a high interest in re-usability which increased complexity. Neither of the two Landers under development are an optimal design for a lunar lander. [00:35:37] Ken asks Doug about the role of commercial companies sometimes called “new space” in space exploration. [00:37:02] Ken asks Doug if he feels discouraged by the fact that the U.S. has squandered a 60-year head start in space exploration. [00:37:36] Ken explains that China aims to send humans to Mars by 2050, and NASA aims to do the same by 2040, while Elon Musk proposes to send humans to Mars by 2029, which Ken says is a completely untenable notion. Ken notes that statements such as that from Musk vastly understate the difficulty entailed in a Mars mission. Given that Doug was part of the early planning of a Mars mission at NASA, he asks Doug to talk about the challenges that such a mission faces. [00:42:17] Ken and Doug discuss the problem with EDL (Entry Descent and Landing) that Mars uniquely poses. [00:43:09] Ken also brings up the issue of crew health and wellness. By the time they reach Mars, given the extended time spent in a high-radiation, micro-gravity environment, maintaining crew health in transit is critical to mission success. [00:43:47] Ken poses the concern that if it becomes likely that China will reach the moon before the U.S. can return, then NASA or the political leadership may adopt the attitude that we've already been to the moon, and that we should just jump straight to Mars. [00:46:24] Ken asks for Doug's thoughts on NASA's current leadership and workforce. [00:49:01] Ken quizzes Doug about the aims, goals, and mission architecture of Artemis III and IV. [00:51:16] Ken notes that the design of Artemis III might negatively impact the overall mission goal of landing on the Moon by 2028. [00:52:04] Ken shifts to talk more about Artemis IV, elements of which, Ken notes, need much more testing to be ready. [00:52:58] Ken closes our interview noting that Doug will return for another interview on STEM-Talk in 2028 to see if Artemis is on schedule. Ken ends by asking Doug about how he started his hobby of collecting Civil War artifacts after he retired and moved to Gettysburg, as well as his hobby of collecting antique cars. [00:55:17] Ken closes by asking Doug to name the favorite car he has collected. Links: Doug Cooke bio Learn more about IHMC STEM-Talk homepage Ken Ford bio Ken Ford Wikipedia page  

Who invented the moonwalk? Does it really matter?We get derailed by the history of dance before we can take our first step on the lunar surface for the third installment of our deep dive into the moon landing.We then get sidetracked by a debate over if the moon has days and nights, and some (inevitable) talk about flossing on the moon, but it's not long before we're skipping into tales of moon rocks in Finglas, the little known truth behind Neil Armstrong's most famous quote, and secret holy ceremonies and secret telepathic experiments on the moon - and all on NASA's time.After their high risk landing the Apollo 11 astronauts may have hoped to be free of danger, but we hear how a broken switch, a high ladder step and a quickly shutting door could have caused separate disasters, in the space of just a few minutes.The conversation gets heated over talk of visible wires holding up the astronauts, and we all share in the childlike joy of Darren Conway realizing his new moon toys have a secret power.Send all of your questions, comments & deep dive suggestions to stallit@goloudnow.com

The mortgage industry has been talking about AI and automation for years — but where is it actually delivering results today? In this episode of Connect, California MBA CEO Paul Gigliotti sits down with Neil Armstrong, newly appointed Chief Revenue Officer of Indecomm, to dig into the real-world mechanics of operational automation in mortgage lending. Neil brings a rare perspective — 20+ years in the industry, including time on the lender side at PHH and Citi Mortgage — and he's not here to sell buzzwords. He's here to talk process, ROI, and what it actually takes to build a scalable lending operation. From machine learning-based document classification to automated underwriting, from breaking down operational silos to the critical role of change management, Neil lays out exactly what's working, where lenders get stuck, and what the next wave of agentic AI looks like inside the mortgage lifecycle. In this episode: • Why cost-per-function analysis is replacing headcount as the efficiency benchmark • How Indecomm's IDX system is cutting title review from 38 minutes to 3 and appraisal review from 40 minutes to 6 • The 60% lift in underwriter productivity — and how automated underwriting is getting there • Why you can't automate a bad process (and what to fix first) • Change management as the #1 deployment killer — and how to get buy-in from the top down • The difference between deterministic rules, machine learning, and true generative AI (and why it matters) • What's coming next: agentic AI as a digital assistant for auditors and underwriters • The human-technology balance — why borrower-facing automation isn't the goal Connect is the California MBA's podcast where strategy, innovation, and leadership come together to shape the future of mortgage finance.

The year was 1969.  I was a month shy of my ninth birthday.  It was way past my bedtime, though it was only 10pm.  In my memory of the event, it was the middle of the night.  Along with my family, gathered around the black-and-white television in my parent's bedroom, we watched the broadcast of the Apollo 11 moon landing.  At 10:56pm EDT time we witnessed, along with the rest of the world, a grainy, gray-scale image of Neil Armstrong stepping onto the lunar surface and say, “That's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind.”  Neil left out a single syllable,  word, “a”.  He had meant to say “That's one small step for A man.” That man being him.  Still, it didn't matter to anyone watching or listening at the time.  The universe had changed.  Humans from earth had stepped foot onto another world.   Thousands of kids at the time wanted to become astronauts and join the space program. I wasn't one of them. Yes, I loved all things space, watched Star Trek, and followed every NASA launch.  I remember Skylab and Mir, the Space Shuttle and Hubble.  I geek out on videos from the International Space Station and have followed the Artemis program for years, finally seeing Artemis II launch, orbit the moon and splash down safely this April, nearly 55 years after Apollo 17, splashed down in December of 1972, ending human missions to the moon for over half a century.   My life took a different path in 1969, having watched the Miracle Mets win the World Series and see them celebrate on the field, on that same black-and-white television in my parents bedroom, a couple of months later.  I chose to pursue a life that would eventually get me on the field at some nebulous future date, when a team I was involved with won a World Series.  I made it to that dreamed of future from my childhood in October of 1992, as I ran onto the field when the Toronto Blue Jays won their first World Series.  Today's guest, on the other hand, did everything in her power to become an astronaut and earlier that same year, flew on the Space Shuttle Discovery, mission STS-42, as the first neurologist and Canadian woman in space.  I even crossed paths with Roberta Bondar when she threw out the first pitch at a Toronto Blue Jays baseball game, soon after her shuttle flight. Two people from very different walks of life, with two very different goals, take different paths and end up in the same place all those years later.  But it didn't end there.  In 2022, when I was up in Sault Ste. Marie, I discovered that Dr. Bondar was born there and they had celebrated her shuttle mission with a flower garden built into a scale model of the Space Shuttle Discovery.  The following year I heard she was giving a talk about her new book, "A Space for Birds", and I knew I had to go.  This time it was two birds, not Blue Jays, that brought us back into the same space.  After the talk, I spoke to her agent and we made arrangements for this very podcast. I've come a long way from that kid who loved space but wanted to live a childhood dream of winning a World Series, and Dr. Bondar has travelled to exactly where she wanted to be.  To fly in space.  Each of us, in different ways, didn't just wish and hope for these things to happen. We focused our lives and energies toward our goals.  My mother used to say, “if wishes were horses, we would all ride.”  That was an important lesson to learn as a kid.  Don't wish, do.  In an era when young people think that “manifesting” a dream will just make it happen, the people who are successful at achieving their goals, like Dr. Bondar, put in the hard work.  Me, I just got lucky. Stop the presses!  In a wonderful bit of serendipity, just days before this episode was due to air, with Dr. Bondar on the podcast to talk about Whooping Cranes, an actual Whooping Crane showed up in Northern Ontario.  The next morning I hopped in the car and drove 6 hours north to the small town of Bruce Mines, and along with a who's-who of Ontario birders, waited until sunset to see this intrepid young female.  She was born of wild parents at the International Crane Foundation in Wisconsin. After being released, Sinclair,(yes they get names and band codes), she joined a group of adults who migrated to Florida for the winter.  Her spring migration home to Wisconsin went slightly of course and she has joined a flock of Sandhill Cranes in Northern Ontario.  I was lucky enough to share the experience with many of my birding friends who also made the trek to see this intrepid traveller, who will hopefully contribute to the future of this endangered species.    So join me, along with Doctor Roberta Bondar, as I live my life long dream to talk to a real, live astronaut about space, birds and A Space for Birds.         Extro.

Michael, my dad, and me. Three generations arguing in one room. That's the format today. My dad watched Neil Armstrong walk on the moon live at twenty-two years old. He remembers the Iranian hostage crisis when it was happening, not when it was a movie. That perspective matters when we get into where we are now — the rhetoric coming out of the White House, the ceasefire that may or may not hold, a war nobody has explained the objective of. We talked about the leaders we don't seem to produce anymore. Kennedy to the moon in ten years. Hungary voting out a hard-right prime minister by historic margins. Why most good people won't touch politics now — they'll destroy your entire family before you ever reach the ballot. Then the stuff that piles up every week. California's rail to nowhere. AI versus actual brain tissue running video games. ICE changing tactics. Cancer research funding cut by thirty-one percent. Civil War monuments and what you do with history you don't want to celebrate. And yes, my dad tried to break into the neighbor's house. And pissed himself at the rodeo. We get to that too. Enjoy.

The Danish-British author, broadcaster and comedian recalls her unusual early life with glee, including how she came to be holding the hand of Neil Armstrong's assistant at NASA's headquarters on July 20, 1969. (R)Sandi's interest in the world was stoked from a young age by her father, Claus, who was Denmark's first Foreign Correspondent, and who was incredibly famous in his homeland.It was her dad who believed experiences were more important than day-to-day schooling, which is how Sandi came to be holding the hand of Neil Armstrong's assistant at NASA's mission control on the day of the Apollo moon landing.Sandi's irrepressible curiosity in the world and its people has been a source of renewal for her, from moments of crippling loneliness and homophobia to joyful occasions and performances.Further informationOriginally broadcast November 2022.This episode was produced by Alice Moldovan.

Naomi Parry, the costume designer who worked closely with Amy Winehouse to craft her iconic style, has this week been vindicated in a high court judgement. Amy Winehouse's father brought the case against Naomi, and another of Amy's friends Catriona Gourlay, challenging their right to auction items that had belonged to the late singer. Naomi joins Nuala McGovern in the Woman's Hour studio to tell us what Monday's judgement means to her. Women have never walked on the Moon until now - at least not for real - but in the living rooms of East Belfast artist, Deby McKnight has made it her mission to get 100 women to take a moonwalk, recreating Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin's historic steps in 1969. Using nothing more than imagination, moon boots and a small piece of the moon itself. We hear from Deby and Aislinn Duffield, who has taken part in her project.At the height of the Covid pandemic, hundreds of women undergoing treatment for breast cancer had mastectomies without reconstruction - procedures that would usually happen at the same time, but were paused because they were considered non-essential. Many women were told they would be able to have reconstructive surgery once the restrictions lifted. But five years on, some are still waiting: living with pain and discomfort, and unable to move on with their lives. Joining Nuala are journalist Rosie Taylor, who has been speaking to the women affected, and Alison from Stockport.'Passport Bros' is the name given to Western men travelling to countries like Vietnam, searching for what they call "good women" who hold traditional values. A new edition of The Economist's Weekend Intelligence Podcast has been exploring the phenomenon - what's attracting these men to relationships abroad and what's pushing them away from dating in the UK or USA.

Il y a 200 ans, le 22 avril 1826, l'Astrolabe quitte Toulon sous le commandement de Jules Dumont d'Urville pour une grande expédition française dans le Pacifique Sud, sur les traces de Lapérouse disparu en 1788. Au-delà de la découverte géographique, l'exploration révèle surtout des enjeux de pouvoir, de savoir et de conquête, de Christophe Colomb à Neil Armstrong, jusqu'à interroger nos explorateurs d'aujourd'hui.

Welcome! With the resounding success of the Artemis mission to the moon, it seems like great time to look back at Ryan Gosling's take on Neil Armstrong, First Man. It's an intimate and epic look at a historical figure who was both enigmatic and introverted. Armstrong was a reluctant icon, and Gosling nails this portrayal. Enjoy!#Apollo #TheMoon #Artemis #ArtemisII #NASA

durée : 00:12:49 - Journal de 7 h - Une prouesse technique, un record battu, et un symbole puissant : la Lune a été approchée comme jamais depuis Neil Armstrong et Buzz Aldrin, en 1969.

Casi 56 años después de que Neil Armstrong bajara por la escalerilla del Eagle, todavía hay quien sostiene, por lo general con un semblante muy serio, que todo aquello fue un montaje rodado por Kubrick en un estudio californiano. Es una de las teorías de la conspiración más conocidas y reproducidas. La historia arranca en plena Guerra Fría, cuando los soviéticos iban ganando la carrera espacial, una humillación que empujó a Kennedy a prometer que un estadounidense pisaría la Luna antes de acabar la década. La NASA cumplió. Entre 1969 y 1972, doce hombres caminaron sobre la superficie lunar. Cuando el programa Apolo ya había concluido, en 1976, un tal Bill Kaysing (que había sido bibliotecario en Rocketdyne, una de las empresas que fabricó el cohete SaturnoV) publicó un libro en el que aseguraba que todo había sido una estafa mil millonaria. Desde entonces los conspiranoicos repiten los mismos argumentos, algunos muy conocidos como que la bandera ondea, que no se ven estrellas , que las sombras van en direcciones raras o que atravesar los cinturones de radiación de Van Allen hubiese matado a los astronautas. Todo tiene respuesta que se ha dado miles de veces, pero eso no ha impedido que la teoría se mantenga. La prueba definitiva la dieron los propios soviéticos. Si hubieran podido demostrar el fraude, lo habrían hecho al día siguiente con desfile en la Plaza Roja. No lo hicieron porque no había fraude que demostrar. A eso hay que sumar los 382 kilos de rocas lunares, los reflectores láser aún operativos, las fotografías recientes del Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter y el hecho de que 400.000 personas trabajaron en programa Apolo. ¿Por qué pervive entonces esta bobada? Porque es una teoría de la conspiración. Ninguna se sostiene sobre pruebas sino sobre la desconfianza hacia las instituciones, el narcisismo del que se cree despierto mientras los demás duermen, y el empuje que a esto le ha dado internet y las redes sociales. Al conspiranoico no se le convence con pruebas ya que si las pruebas le convencieran, no sería conspiranoico.

La Luna siempre ha estado ahí, aparentemente a tiro de piedra. Se encuentra a una media de 384.000 kilómetros, lo que la convierte en el único cuerpo celeste que nuestros antepasados podían contemplar con detalle a simple vista. Eso hizo de ella territorio de sacerdotes, poetas y astrólogos durante miles de años. Sus fases regulares, ese ciclo de 29 días y medio, sirvieron para medir el tiempo mucho antes de que nadie entendiese la mecánica orbital. Calendarios lunares los hay por todas partes, desde el chino hasta el musulmán, pasando por el modo en el que los cristianos fijan la fecha de la Semana Santa. Llegar a pisarla ya era otra historia. La odisea empezó con la Segunda Guerra Mundial y los cohetes V-2 que Wernher von Braun desarrolló para el Tercer Reich. Acabada la contienda, estadounidenses y soviéticos se llevaron a los ingenieros alemanes. Von Braun acabó en Alabama trabajando para el ejército de Estados Unidos. Durante años su trabajo avanzó lentamente hasta que el 4 de octubre de 1957 la Unión Soviética puso en órbita el Sputnik. Aquella esfera que pitaba desde el espacio provocó la estupefacción de los estadounidenses. Los soviéticos repitieron con la perra Laika y luego con Yuri Gagarin, el primer ser humano en orbitar la Tierra. Estados Unidos iba siempre un paso por detrás. Entonces apareció Kennedy. Joven y ambicioso, vio en la Luna un proyecto casi de ciencia ficción en el que todos estaban de acuerdo. En mayo de 1961 anunció ante el Congreso que un estadounidense pisaría la Luna antes de que terminase la década. Era una promesa temeraria porque en aquel momento la experiencia tripulada de la NASA se reducía al vuelo suborbital de quince minutos de Alan Shepard. Nadie sabía cómo llegar a la Luna. Nadie tenía el cohete. Nadie estaba seguro de que fuera posible. Los programas Mercury y Gemini fueron la escuela. Con el Mercury aprendieron que un ser humano podía sobrevivir en el espacio. Con el Gemini ensayaron todo lo necesario para la misión lunar: acoplamientos, paseos espaciales, maniobras orbitales. El programa para llegara a la Luna la NASA lo bautizó Apolo. Adoptaron el perfil de misión propuesto por el ingeniero John Houbolt y Von Braun construyó el Saturno V, un monstruo de 110 metros de altura capaz de poner 45 toneladas camino de la Luna. Hubo tragedias. El incendio del Apolo 1 mató a tres astronautas en enero de 1967 y obligó a rediseñar la cápsula entera. Hubo también momentos gloriosos. El Apolo 8 llevó a tres hombres a orbitar la Luna en la Navidad de 1968. Y el 20 de julio de 1969, Neil Armstrong y Buzz Aldrin descendieron con el módulo Eagle hasta el mar de la Tranquilidad. Seiscientos millones de personas lo vieron en directo por televisión. Le siguieron seis misiones más, hasta el Apolo 17 en diciembre de 1972. Trajeron 382 kilos de rocas, desplegaron instrumentos, algunos incluso siguen funcionando hoy y cambiaron para siempre nuestra comprensión del sistema solar. Las huellas de aquellos doce hombres permanecen intactas en el regolito lunar ya que en la Luna no hay viento ni lluvia que las borre. Esperemos que quienes lleguen después las respeten.

The Big Year Podcast April 1, 2026   It is April 1, 2026, I'm Robert Baumander and welcome to season 4 of The Big Year Podcast.  My 4th season?  Really?  So glad to be back again.  Miss me?  It's been an exciting journey and this season promises to be the best ever.  Maybe. Or not.  I'll let you be the judge, when it's all said and done, but boy am I looking forward to some of the guests I've already lined up.  In addition to Big Year birders, you'll get to hear from a real live astronaut, who is involved in bird conservation and a paleontologist who will educate us on which of the dinosaurs that survived the great meteor impact became the birds we know and love today. Last time you heard my voice, I was settling in for winter, and beginning work on my book, The Trans-Canada Jay Highway.  I was planning to stay local for the winter, focus my ADHD brain on just writing, and this podcast, but word of an amazing rarity in Montreal Quebec hit the birding world in January.  It was a very unlikely visitor from across the pond, a European Robin.  Wowzers.  That was a bird I wanted to see.  I waited a few days; one, to make sure it was sticking around and more importantly, for a good weather forecast that wouldn't have me driving through a blizzard or looking for the bird in minus 40 temperatures.    After a seven hour drive, including a slow trek through Montreal construction traffic in the rain, I arrived at a quiet, snow covered neighborhood, to find a small group of excited birders who had just found the robin.  Everyone in the neighborhood was welcoming to all of us who came to see their celebrity bird, including one woman who was putting seed out for the weary traveller.  When another birder showed up shortly after I arrived we both looked at each other, with the merest glimmer of recognition, but couldn't quite place from where.  It was Josh Gant who figured it out.  Josh was a guest on this very podcast, talking about his New Jersey state Big Year.  He also drove 7 hours to get to Montreal.  We arrived within minutes of each other and got to celebrate this amazing once in a lifetime bird, together and with other birders who had made the trek to Montreal.  None of us, however, had travelled as far as the European Robin.   European Robins are not related in any way to our American Robins.  European Robins, I discovered, are in the Old World Flycatcher family and American Robins are thrushes. Our robin's name was given only because of their similar red breast.  Many birds that are known as robins also sport this feature.  A better name for our robin would be Red-breasted Thrush.  So, the European Robin is not a thrush and the American Robin is a thrush.  And don't get me started on all the other “robins”. Moving on.   Today is not just an exciting day for bird lovers, and lovers of birding podcasts, but also space exploration.  Artemis II is on the launchpad, with four astronauts, including  Canadian Jeremy Hansen, and is scheduled to blast off at 6:24pm this April 1.  As someone who is old enough to have watched Neil Armstrong walk on the moon and is nerdy enough to build NASA Lego sets, including the Artemis, this is an exciting day.  As for this episode, my guest is Josh van der Meulen.  You might know him, might have birded with him, but may not know his Big Year story.  If you remember back to last season,(and if not, why not?   I urge you to go back and take listen), I spent an hour or so talking to Andrew Keaveny.  Back in 2012, Andrew and Josh were doing Ontario Big Years.  I was a birdy-eyed beginner doing an ABA Big Year.  I relied on both of them to help me find birds when I was birding in Ontario, while they competed for Ontario Big Year supremacy.  I likened their competition to that of Kenn Kaufman and Floyd Murdoch's 1973 Big Years.   Though it was a competition, Andrew and Josh kept things civil between them and even birded together and helped each other along the way.  I was on the scene when Andrew missed the Townsend's Solitaire and found the only Red Knot of my Big Year, thanks to Josh.  14 years later, both of them are good birding buddies, who I'm always glad to run into, usually when stalking a rare bird.    So, now that we're all caught up, let's once again travel back in time to 2012, which seems to be the nexus of modern Big Year birding, and get on with the show.  

On September 12th, 1962, President John F. Kennedy announced that the United States would land a man on the moon within the decade. Seven years later, Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin planted the American flag on the lunar surface. Now, NASA and space agencies around the globe are planning on going back. So what is it about the moon that continues to capture humanity’s heart and imagination? This hour, we learn all about the philosophy and religion behind our pursuit of the moon—and explore the possibility of reciprocal relationships with the moon. Guests: Mary-Jane Rubenstein: Dean of Social Sciences at Wesleyan University and author of "Astrotopia: The Dangerous Religion of the Corporate Space Race." Wunneanatsu Lamb-Cason: author of "Grandmother Moon" and Assistant Director of the Native American and Indigenous Studies Initiative at Brown University Support the show: http://wnpr.org/donateSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Astronomy Daily — Season 5, Episode 70 Monday, March 23, 2026   In today's episode, Anna and Avery cover six stories spanning a live European rocket launch attempt, a sixty-year-old NASA emergency brought back to life through newly surfaced photographs, a cosmic explosion caught only by its echo, the fight to preserve the night sky, a supply run to the ISS with an unexpected complication, and a first-of-its-kind discovery involving brown dwarf stars.   Story 1: Europe's Spectrum Rocket — Bid for Orbit Today Isar Aerospace's Spectrum rocket is attempting its second test flight today — its qualification mission for ESA's European Launcher Challenge. Launching from Andøya Spaceport in Norway, the mission carries five CubeSats and one experiment from European universities and companies, all supported by ESA's Boost! program. If successful, it would mark a landmark moment for European sovereign access to space.

A spacecraft malfunction sent the capsule into an uncontrolled spin reaching one revolution per second. Never-before-seen photographs of Armstrong's recovery have been donated to the Armstrong Air and Space Museum in Wapakoneta, Ohio.

Just as Neil Armstrong's first step on the moon in 1969 changed the course of history in ways no one could have imagined, a single step of faith can lead to outcomes beyond our wildest dreams. This sermon explores how God turns our small steps into giant leaps. Drawing from the Songs of Ascent (Psalms 120–134) and the miraculous healing at the Pool of Bethesda, we are reminded that God always has a process — and that He is putting us together piece by piece. All He asks is that we take the step. He will handle the leap.

In this second sit-down with Craig Membrey, we peel back the layers on how a young bloke with no tickets and a big dream built one of Australia's most respected crane and transport businesses — and lived a hell of a life along the way.Craig breaks down his journey from leaving school at 14, taking over a small family operation, and growing it into a massive fleet spanning cranes, trucks, trailers, forklifts, and heavy gear across Australia. He shares raw lessons on leadership, hiring the right people, backing yourself, and why passion beats formal education every day of the week.The conversation then rolls into wild international yarns - from countless trips to Las Vegas, shooting machine guns from helicopters, and driving stretch Hummers across the desert, to meeting legends like Neil Armstrong, hanging backstage with ZZ Top, and crossing paths with Lionel Richie.Craig also shares his love for American road trips - from Nashville and Broadway, to the SEMA Show, the Mid-America Truck Show, and old-school towns like Lynchburg, home of Jack Daniel's. Along the way, he talks travel, culture, risk-taking, business mistakes, and why young people should stop wasting weekends and start seeing the world.If you're into business podcasts, Australian success stories, transport industry yarns, Vegas stories, American road trips, or no-BS life lessons, this episode delivers big time.Straight talk. Big laughs. A proper true yarn about building something real - and enjoying the ride while you're at it.#propertrueyarn Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

What do Sir Steve Redgrave, Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin, Nelson Mandela, Gandhi, David Beckham and John Robins have in common? None of them were asked on QI. Elis has though, and it's clearly going down very very well with all parties. But today feels significant as we rope in a special guest to digest Elis hammering his friend using his fast twitch fibres. On top of that, John's having a big day - something which others seriously doubt. “He's probably just had too much hot sauce on his scrambled egg,” cries Dave. Wrong! In fact he's being texted by a ghost curry house. Elsewhere the boys ask Adrian *all* the questions you've ever wanted to know, and we get a bit nostalgic as John talks of the only cool thing he's ever done.

George Noory and author Maureen Seaberg discuss the human sensory system and how sight, hearing, smell, taste and touch are far more sensitive that previously thought, the story of a woman who could identify what Covid smelled like, and why we couldn't have heard Neil Armstrong talking when he walked on the Moon.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Einstein theorized the existence of black holes. Then in the 1960's we observed them for the first time. Anca Constantin says black holes occur throughout the universe, but we can only see the hungry ones. Also: Mool Gupta was in grad school for Apollo 11 in 1969. He watched with wonder as Neil Armstrong stepped foot on the moon. Now he's partnering with NASA in the Artemis program - a series of missions that could return astronauts to the moon as early as 2027. He helped develop a rover with laser technology that can identify minerals and detect evidence of alien life on the surface of the moon. Later in the show: 35 million years ago, what is now the Chesapeake Bay was struck by an asteroid as big as Manhattan. Rich Whittecar is part of the team that recently discovered the first terrestrial evidence of the impact. He says the blast was 200,000 times more powerful than an atomic bomb.

A tribute Paranormal Peep Show . Marcus Allen, the UK publisher of the alternative ideas magazine Nexus, passed away in January 2026. Back in 2018, The Paranormal Peep Show  invited him to speak about his Apollo Moon hoax theories, covering the rocketry, the Van Allen radiation belts, the luna photography issues and much more. In tribute to Marcus, we repeat this episode here for all those that missed it and perhaps wanted to know a little more about the moon hoax ideas.This later led to a second episode of a debate with a NASA proponent, Peter Bassett and we then branched out and produced around 10 plus episodes of The Apollo Detectives where Marcus was joined with other invited guests to take part in hoax theories and problems that faced the NASA missions of the late 1960s, early 70s.  We send our condolences out to Marcus's family, friends and colleagues. He will be greatly missed by all, and perhaps now, he is able to soar to the moon and beyond and check out if Neil Armstrong actually did land on the moon or not. This episode first aired on our channel in August 2018.Our other episodes for your consideration, with Marcus and Peter Bassett https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WbTAuYtspsI&t=7268sThe very first Apollo Detectives episode produced on this channel with Marcus and guests https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=blJ-mxE0FFo&t=9sMarcus presenting his talk, Apollo: Fact or Fiction at High Wycombe Paranormal Meet up group, which I started and ran for around 5 years https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VE5-na1SvfA&t=245sNexus Magazine, of which Marcus was the UK publisher https://nexusmagazine.com/?v=79cba1185463Our friend and guest, Andy Thomas, wrote a wonderful tribute to Marcus on his own web site here https://truthagenda.org/2026/01/19/marcus-allen-1942-2026-a-personal-reflection/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/paranormal-uk-radio-network--4541473/support.

La vida en la Tierra no sería la misma si no existiese la Luna, espejo nocturno de la luz del Sol. Nuestro satélite regula las mareas, la duración de los días o las costumbres de la fauna; ha sido clave en nuestra evolución como especie y en el conocimiento sobre el origen del planeta que habitamos. Pero también ha condicionado la cosmogonía y mitología de las civilizaciones antiguas y ha fascinado a escritores, poetas y cantantes de todos los tiempos, que han evocado de mil maneras su pureza y misterios. Asimismo, nuestra vecina cósmica ha nutrido el folclore y el acervo cultural, a veces con creencias acientíficas como su influencia en los partos, la agricultura o la salud mental. No faltan leyendas y relatos sobre su poder transformador, como en el caso de la licantropía. La literatura nos permite visitarla desde que Luciano de Samósata escribiera en el siglo II Una historia verdadera, mucho antes de la famosa novela de Julio Verne.La Luna es el único astro celeste alcanzado por el ser humano. Desde aquella primera huella dejada por Neil Armstrong el 20 de julio de 1969, una docena de hombres ha pisado el satélite en diferentes misiones Apolo hasta 1972. Hace más de medio siglo, por tanto, que nuestra especie no solo no la visita, sino que ni siquiera la orbita. Algo a lo que pretende poner fin la próxima misión Artemis II de la NASA.En este documental sonoro, escrito por Alfredo Laín y realizado por Samuel Alarcón, contamos con las voces de las astrofísicas Eva Villaver, autora de Las mil caras de la luna, y Montserrat Villar, autora de Mirar los cielos. Participa también el escritor y filólogo David Hernández de la Fuente, coeditor del libro Utópicos, pioneros y lunáticos. Relatos de viajes a la Luna antes de Julio Verne.Escuchar audio

Why does a perfectly steady heartbeat actually serve as a warning sign you should not ignore? If your heart is a drummer, why is a little bit of "bad timing" a good thing? How can your smartwatch tell you are stressed before you even feel it? Why does splashing cold water on your face trigger an ancient, "hidden" survival reflex? Why did Neil Armstrong's heart race to 150 BPM while his co-pilot stayed totally calm? ... we explain like I'm five Thank you to the r/explainlikeimfive community and in particular the following users whose questions and comments formed the basis of this discussion: iacuriousguy1968, quesoqueso, elderberry2, spooky_fellow, swolemedic, uptowntwerk, narwhalondrugs and alternative-sea-6238 To the ELI5 community that has supported us so far, thanks for all your feedback and comments.

Send us a text2026 is the Year of the Fire Horse - What's that mean?Let's break it down. First, the year of the horse is known for bringing with it the energy of independence, charisma, and basically getting LOTS done! Think drive and dynamism. This year also marks one of intense innovation, bold action and strong leadership potential.Now, the fire element that is a part of this 43rd combination of the 60-year Chinese sexagenary cycle? First, what does your gut say Fire will add? Fire is associated with passion, vitality, and creativity. As an element, it intensifies the natural traits of the Horse. Is that what you got? I had some of that right, but not all.Together then, fire and horse can mean this will be a year of extraordinary drive and dynamism. It might be a period of intense innovation, bold action and strong leadership potential (and we aren't necessarily talking politics by the way). The fire horse can be a sign of extremes, meaning events can occur with spectacular good or bad luck, we will rarely see the in-between bits. Could this signal the death gasp of the old dualistic nature on Earth? I don't know. I do know that the wood snake last year held the energy of itchiness, a bursting out of our old skins, like right before a snake sheds that old skin and comes into its new one. The end of 2025 had that teeth gnashing, low belly ache of knowing something is coming, but not knowing what. The Fire Horse is a sure sign something new is here. Whew. What it is? Well, I don't know, but whatever it is, we are stronger than we thought we were at the start of 2025, and that strength ensures we will make certain our communities, our patch of earth and we are okay with the new whatever.Famous Horses of HistoryBecause they are bold, horses tend to be journalists, politicians, and comedians. Here are a few famous horses; Gordon Ramsey, Lou Reed, Harrison Ford, Sean Connery, Neil Armstrong, and Barbra StreisandIn general, those born in the Year of the Horse are hardworking, thorough, helpful, generous, and determined. Their secret friends are sheep. Their allies are tigers and dogs, from the Chinese Zodiac.Ona Christie Martin, our special guest, and all of the links to her work! I don't accept sponsors and paid advertisers.

At the cusp of the 20th century, it seemed like contact with another world was just a matter of time. In fact, the French Academy of Sciences announced a prize for such a feat 125 years ago today. The winner would receive 100,000 francs. There was only one catch: Mars didn’t count. The prize was established by Clara Guzman in honor of her son. He was a follower of astronomer Camille Flammarion, who wrote extensively – and fancifully – about the Red Planet. Guzman excluded Mars from the competition because it seemed just too easy. Percival Lowell had popularized the idea that Mars was crisscrossed by canals – built by Martians to bring water from the poles to the planet’s deserts. Inventor Nicola Tesla had reported hearing possible radio signals from Mars. And many others thought that vast dark areas on Mars were covered with vegetation. Many schemes were proposed to contact the Martians. One suggested creating giant geometric shapes in Siberia. Another suggested digging the shapes into the Sahara Desert, filling them with kerosene, and setting them on fire. None of the schemes ever materialized. And no one ever claimed the prize for contacting another world. So the French academy decided to award the prize for making physical contact. In 1969, it awarded the Guzman Prize to Apollo 11 astronauts Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin, and Michael Collins – the first men to set foot on another world. Script by Damond Benningfield

"They say once you grow crops somewhere, you have officially colonized it. So technically, I colonized Mars. In your face , Neil Armstrong!"As Mark Watney's line from the book and film The Martian suggests, fruits and vegetables have long played a starring role in our visions of space. Sometimes they're subtle symbols of home; other times, they're humanity's only hope for survival.But how realistic are these space gardens? Could these crops truly grow beyond Earth - and if they could, would they be enough to sustain life? And what lessons can we draw from history, when explorers relied on produce to survive their own journeys into the unknown?Join John and Patrick on this month's livestream as they pull out the popcorn to talk space films, produce and history!-----------Join the History of Fresh Produce Club for ad-free listening, bonus episodes, book discounts and access to an exclusive chatroom community.Support us!Share this episode with your friendsGive a 5-star ratingWrite a review -----------Subscribe to our biweekly newsletter here for extra stories related to recent episodes, book recommendations, a sneak peek of upcoming episodes and more.-----------Instagram, TikTok, Threads:@historyoffreshproduceEmail: historyoffreshproduce@gmail.com
